Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional cytokine with an important role in immunity. We analyzed the effect of recombinant human IL-6 in combination with 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (Vit. D3) on differentiation of the human myeloid leukemic cell lines U937 and HL-60 with respect to alterations in antigen expression and functional activity. Of a panel of antigens analyzed, only CD11b (the alpha chain of CR3), and CD14 (a cell surface protein recognizing the lipopolysaccharide-binding protein-lipopolysaccharide complex) had significantly increased expression. Expression of ICAM-1 (CD54), a ligand for LFA-1, was also found to be enhanced with a concomitant increase of ICAM-1 mRNA levels. Enhanced nonspecific esterase levels and induction of respiratory burst activity confirmed that cell differentiation was induced. Furthermore, IL-6 and Vit. D3 had a profound effect on functional activities, as shown by enhancement of rosetting between sheep erythrocytes, sensitized with C3bi (EAC), and either U937 or HL-60 cells. Also, phorbol myristate acetate-induced homotypic adhesion of U937, which is ICAM-1 dependent, was markedly induced by these agents. These results indicate an important role of IL-6 and Vit. D3 in myeloid cell function and development. 相似文献

The U937 cell line was used to investigate the induction of messenger RNA (mRNA) for the c-fgr mRNA tyrosine kinase proto-oncogene in cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage. U937 cells were exposed to tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), TNF-beta and transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), alone and in combination with PMA and 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25-DHCC). TNF-alpha and TNF-beta, but not TGF-alpha, decreased the proliferation of U937 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and both TNF-alpha and TNF-beta enhanced the response of U937 cells to PMA during the first 24 hr of treatment and to 1,25-DHCC over 72 hr. TNF-alpha induced a rapid increase in c-fgr mRNA levels within 4 hr, in contrast to slower induction by PMA and 1,25-DHCC. TNF-alpha and 1,25-DHCC together had an additive effect on c-fgr mRNA levels. In U937 cells exposed to PMA, c-fgr mRNA levels continued to increase over 72 hr. Levels of c-fgr mRNA induced by the various modulating agents did not correlate clearly with the changes in proliferation. Therefore, we suggest that although the c-fgr gene product may have a role in differentiation, the more significant role is likely to be in the fully differentiated macrophage. 相似文献

CD11c/CD18 is expressed primarily on myeloid cells, where its expression is regulated both during differentiation and during monocyte maturation into tissue macrophages, and is also a receptor for fibrinogen and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We focused on the molecular mechanisms leading to the activation of CD11c expression in differentiating U937 cells. During phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced differentiation of U937 cells, we found that the mRNA expression of CD11c was increased. Se-methylselenocysteine (Se-MSC) potentiated up-regulation of CD11c expression and its promoter activity and increased PLD1 activity without affecting the level of PLD1 protein in PMA-treated cells. To examine the regulation mechanism of PMA and Se-MSC on CD11c gene expression through the activation of PLD1, we analyzed changes in the CD11c mRNA level and the promoter activity following treatment of a selective PLD inhibitor n-butanol. The combinatory effect of PMA and Se-MSC on CD11c gene expression was abolished by n-butanol in a dose-dependent manner. Further, introduction of PLD1 gene into U937 cells increased CD11c mRNA expression and activated CD11c promoter activity in a dose-dependent manner. These results showed that Se-MSC increased PMA-induced CD11c expression through the activation of PLD1 signaling pathway. To our knowledge, this is the first report that expression of the CD11c gene is regulated by PLD1 and is enhanced by Se-MSC during PMA-induced U937 differentiation. 相似文献

Multiple effects of human recombinant interleukin 4 on human myeloid monocyte cell lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of recombinant human interleukin 4 (rIL-4) on proliferation and differentiation on human myeloid/monocytic leukemia cell lines were examined. At high concentrations, rIL-4 had a slight enhancing effect on [3H]thymidine incorporation by U937 cells. rIL-4 markedly induced expression of the Fc epsilon receptor (CD23) and the Leu-M3 antigen (CD14) on U937 cells. HL60 and THP-1 cells treated with rIL-4 also showed increased CD23 expression, but little change of CD14 antigen expression. CD23 induction required lower amounts of IL-4 than needed for T cell growth, indicating that CD23 induction on U937 will serve as a sensitive assay for human IL-4. rIL-4 reduced the steady state level of IL-1 beta mRNA in U937. 相似文献

CD147 monoclonal antibodies induce homotypic cell aggregation of monocytic cell line U937 via LFA-1/ICAM-1 pathway 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
CD147 is a 50 000-60 000 MW glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily broadly expressed on haemopoietic cell lines and peripheral blood cells. In the present study, six monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against the CD147 protein were generated. The antigen defined by the generated CD147 mAbs is widely expressed on haemopoietic cell lines, peripheral blood cells and is a lymphocyte activation-associated cell surface molecule. The generated CD147 mAbs precipitated a broad protein band from U937 cells of 45 000-65 000 MW under reducing conditions. Functional analysis indicated that the CD147 mAbs markedly induced homotypic cell aggregation of U937 cells, but not K562 cells. The CD147 mAb-induced cell aggregation was inhibited by leucocyte function-antigen-1 (LFA-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) mAbs. However, the expression of LFA-1 and ICAM-1 molecules on U937 was not altered by CD147 mAb treatment. The U937 cell aggregation induced by CD147 mAb was also inhibited by ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA), sodium azide and when incubated at 4 degrees. We therefore propose that the binding of CD147 mAb to CD147 molecule, which mimics the natural ligand binding, may generate intracellular signals that activate LFA-1/ICAM-1 intercellular adhesion pathway. 相似文献

The death-associated protein kinase 2 (DAPK2) belongs to a family of Ca(2+)/calmodulin-regulated serine/threonine kinases involved in apoptosis. During investigation of candidate genes operative in granulopoiesis, we identified DAPK2 as highly expressed. Subsequent investigations demonstrated particularly high DAPK2 expression in normal granulocytes compared with monocytes/macrophages and CD34(+) progenitor cells. Moreover, significantly increased DAPK2 mRNA levels were seen when cord blood CD34(+) cells were induced to differentiate toward neutrophils in tissue culture. In addition, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced neutrophil differentiation of two leukemic cell lines, NB4 and U937, revealed significantly higher DAPK2 mRNA expression paralleled by protein induction. In contrast, during differentiation of CD34(+) and U937 cells toward monocytes/macrophages, DAPK2 mRNA levels remained low. In primary leukemia, low expression of DAPK2 was seen in acute myeloid leukemia samples, whereas chronic myeloid leukemia samples in chronic phase showed intermediate expression levels. Lentiviral vector-mediated expression of DAPK2 in NB4 cells enhanced, whereas small interfering RNA-mediated DAPK2 knockdown reduced ATRA-induced granulocytic differentiation, as evidenced by morphology and neutrophil stage-specific maturation genes, such as CD11b, G-CSF receptor, C/EBPepsilon, and lactoferrin. In summary, our findings implicate a role for DAPK2 in granulocyte maturation. 相似文献

The c-fgr proto-oncogene: expression in Epstein-Barr-virus-infected B lymphocytes and in cells of the myelomonocytic and granulocytic lineages. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The c-fgr proto-oncogene, which is a member of the c-src gene family, encodes the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase p55c-fgr. Expression of the c-fgr gene is activated in human B lymphocytes following infection with Epstein-Barr virus, and the viral protein EBNA-2 is involved in mediating this effect. The only normal cells in which the c-fgr gene is known to be expressed are peripheral-blood granulocytes and monocytes, and tissue macrophages. In accordance with this, levels of c-fgr mRNA increase when the human promonocytic cell line U937 and the human myelomonocytic cell line HL60 are induced to differentiate. The enzyme activity and the expression pattern of p55c-fgr suggest that it is involved in regulating the responses of terminally differentiated granulocytes and monocytes to external stimuli, perhaps by controlling changes in cytoskeletal structure. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate effects of arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) and alltrans retinoic acid (ATRA) on PLZF-RARalpha-positive cells. METHODS: PLZF-RARalpha-positive U937 cells (U937/PLZF) were used as an in vitro model. The change of cell morphology was observed by Wright-Giemsa staining. Cell growth and proliferation were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay. Cell cycle distribution and expression of cell membrane surface differentiation-related antigens (such as CD11b, CD64 and CD14) were determined by flow cytometry assay. Expression of PLZF was analyzed by immunofluorescence. Functional differentiation was reflected by nitroblue tetrazolium(NBT) reduction ability and cytochemistry staining. RESULTS: While U937/PLZF cells were incubated in tetracycline-withdrawn medium, the expression of PLZF-RARalpha; protein increased. After treated with As(2)O(3) (0.5 micromol/L) and ATRA (1 mumol/L), U937/PLZF cells presented some changes such as decreased nuclear/cytoplasm ratio, and partial disappearance of nucleoli, suggesting a certain degree of morphological differentiation. The cell growth and proliferation were inhibited in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The proportion of cells in S phage was decreased and CD11b level was increased. The expression of PLZF relocated in treated cells. However, no significant difference in NBT assay and cytochemistry staining was documented with the combination therapy. CONCLUSION: The combination of As(2)O(3) with ATRA can cause a slight tendency to morphological differentiation but is insufficient to induce functional differentiation of PLZF-RARalpha positive U937 leukemia cells. 相似文献

Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a cytokine with multiple biological activities on various tissues and cells. We have investigated the effect of recombinant human IL-6 (rhIL-6) on growth and differentiation of U937. Recombinant human IL-6 induced a dose-dependent growth inhibition, apparent around day 4, of up to 50% by day 8 of culture. Concomitant with this, changes in cytochemical activities were observed, indicative of differentiation. A panel of U937 antigens was analysed after culture with rhIL-6. Expression of the majority of these membrane antigens was unaffected, with the exception of two classes. First, rhIL-6 had a profound effect on members of the leucocytic cell adhesion molecules (Leu-CAM) family. Expression of the alpha-chain of CR3 (complement receptor 3; CD11b) was enhanced in a dose-dependent fashion, with maximal expression around day 7. Parallel to this a simultaneous increase in beta-chain (CD18) expression was found. Furthermore, enhanced expression of CR3 was, accompanied by increased rosetting with sheep erythrocytes sensitized with C3bi. A much lower, but significant, enhancement was observed for the alpha-chain of the p150,95 antigen (CD11c). Expression of leucocyte function-associated antigen-1, (LFA-1), (CD11a/CD18) remained unchanged. Remarkably, however, expression of a ligand of LFA-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1; CD54), was enhanced with similar kinetics as CR3 and p150,95. A specific anti-rhIL-6 antiserum completely inhibited the IL-6 effect. These observations provide further support for an important role of IL-6 in the regulation of myeloid cell development in man. 相似文献

The effect of fluvastatin, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, was investigated on the adhesive interaction between U937 cells, the human monocyte cell line, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), focusing on the expression of adhesion molecules. U937 treated with fluvastatin lowered the capacity for binding to HUVEC. Fluvastatin at 0.1 μM or more inhibited the expression of lymphocyte function associated antigen-I (LFA-1) on U937 and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-I) on U937. The expression of ICAM-1 on HUVEC was not inhibited by fluvastatin. The inhibitory effects of fluvastatin on the expression of adhesion molecules on U937 were completely reversed by the addition of mevalonate. Because fluvastatin did not affect the expression of other cell surface markers, CD4 and CD71, the inhibitory effects of fluvastatin on adhesion molecule expression could not be attributed to the non-specific suppression of the cell. It is conceivable that cellular interaction between monocytes and endothelial cells is inhibited by fluvastatin, mediated via reducing the expression of adhesion molecules, particularly in the side of monocyte. 相似文献

The regulation of low affinity IgE receptor (Fc epsilon R2/CD23) expression on the human monoblast cell line U937 was examined by an anti-Fc epsilon R2/CD23 monoclonal antibody (H107) and the cDNA probe for Fc epsilon R2/CD23. Alpha interferon (IFN-alpha) and its intracellular mediator, (2'-5')oligoadenylate (2, 5-A), induced Fc epsilon R2/CD23 expression on U937 with no significant increase of the Fc epsilon R2/CD23 mRNA. PMA and IFN-gamma increased both surface Fc epsilon R2/CD23 expression and the Fc epsilon R2/CD23 mRNA levels. IFN-alpha effectively induced 2, 5-A synthetase activity in U937 cells, whereas IFN-gamma induced little. The results suggest that the mechanisms of enhancement of Fc epsilon R2/CD23 expression on U937 cells by IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma are different and that 2, 5-A may play an important role in the Fc epsilon R2/CD23 expression on U937 cells induced by IFN-alpha. 相似文献

We have previously described a synergism between the two physiological hormones, retinoic acid (RA) and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD) in the induction of U937 cell differentiation towards a more mature state. Herein, we investigated the regulation of cytokine production during RA and/or VD treatment of U937 cells. Cell differentiation was followed by measurement of their capacity to give oxidative responses, and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and IL-6 gene and protein expression were determined in RA/VD-treated cells, activated or not with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The undifferentiated and RA-treated U937 cells were unable to produce monokines even when they were stimulated by LPS. VD induced the monokine mRNA expression in U937 cells but failed to induce protein release. However, unlike RA, it primed the cells to secrete monokines upon endotoxin stimulation. A large enhancement of the production of the monokines both at mRNA and protein levels was observed in the U937 cells exposed to the combination of RA + VD. Nevertheless, protein release required a further step of activation of the RA + VD-primed cells. The co-inducer effect of RA and VD was not observed in HL-60 or THP-1 cells and seems to be restricted to U937 cells. These results on cytokine expression support our previous finding that a combination of RA and VD brings the U937 cells to a high stage of myeloid differentiation with major characteristics of monocytes/macrophages. 相似文献

We have examined the effects of vitamin D3 metabolites and retinoic acid on the myelomonocyte cell line U937. Inhibition of proliferation, measured by incorporation of 125iodo-deoxyuridine was seen at 72 h with 1,25-(OH)2D3 but not 25(OH)D3 or 24, 25(OH)2D3 metabolites. CD14 molecules, not normally present on U937 cells, were induced on the cell surface. However, Class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules were not induced and Class I MHC molecules not increased in density as determined by flow cytometry. Retinoic acid inhibited proliferation but failed to induce CD14 molecules. These data suggest that both 1,25(OH)2D3 and retinoic acid act as an antiproliferation signal to U937 cells; only 1,25-(OH)2D3 induces the differentiation towards a more mature phenotype. 相似文献
